    Cardiff 2-3 Arsenal

    Cardiff City

    Cardiff boss Neil Warnock speaking to Sky Sports: "It's tough but I really enjoyed the game, it was a great game to watch from the sideline and I thought we were always on it.

    "Top teams take their chances, there's a lot to work on but we didn't want to park the bus -we wanted the fans to enjoy it and I felt we gave them a good game here . We could've got a result really.

    "We had a lot of chances, plenty of bodies in the box and things like that so it has been a lot more enjoyable. If we'd had one up top today they would have murdered us - we wouldn't have seen the ball, so it's a good performance.

    "We should've punished them really."

    It's all been one way, Burnley look a tired outfit. Their exertions on Thursday may have caused a problem.

    Luke Shaw he looks a player full of confidence and had a big influence in that.

    Spurs are ending the half strongly.

    Clever from Dele Alli who turns and volleys without finding the target before Davinson Sanchez gets on the end of Jan Vertonghen's lovely cross but can't keep it down.

    GOAL - Burnley 0-2 Man Utdpublished at 16:44 British Summer Time 2 September 2018

    Romelu Lukaku (44 mins)

    Two for Romelu Lukaku!

    This one definitely wasn't slick in the end but Jose won't mind that one bit.

    Jesse Lingard strikes into the stomach of Ben Mee, the ball bounces on to the head of Ashley Westwood and into the path of a waiting Lukaku.

    He slots it home to double the visitors' lead.

    Luke Shaw had a big hand in the build-up to that - and is looking really good.

    It was a clever, free kick one they've worked on. You could tell as they had three players all trying to get on the end of it. They were offside and they missed the target anyway but clever from Spurs.

    Dele Alli misses from about two yards out following a cleverly worked free-kick but his blushes are saved by an offside flag.

    Not going to lie but this is a shocker. We're still awaiting the first shot on target.

    That five-goal thriller between Cardiff and Arsenal already seems a distant memory.

    A lot of noise from the visiting fans following that Romelu Lukaku header.

    Burnley get the ball into a dangerous area but the communication between Jeff Hendrick and Chris Wood is non-existent.

    United snatch back possession.

    Sean Dyche is livid on the touchline. He's complaining about the rough treatment of his lone striker Chris Wood.

    It's definitely been a physical battle so far for Wood, but it looks like he is backing into his marker on this occasion.

    No more than Man United deserve. The way they have started they have certainly answered a few questions. Lingard, Lukaku and Sanchez look lively, Sanchez and Lukaku combine this time and it is a good finish.
